Being a HBASE member allows me educational opportunities as well as social and networking events, and let’s be honest, home builders are a fun group of people. HBASE membership allows me to give back to my community, as there is something for every person and every industry. HBASE continually makes an effort to protect our city and our businesses. Membership is a “no-brainer”!

We have enjoyed being members of the HBA! They do a wonderful job putting on the Home Show and if we ever need anything they are awesome at assisting us. We will be HBA members for years to come and we look forward to diving into all that the HBA has to offer.

When I attended my first HBASE membership meeting over a decade ago, a presenter said ‘you’d get as much as you’d put in’. After serving on various committees, volunteering at the Home Show and community projects and also attending member get-togethers, I’ve enjoyed and benefited meeting and helping so many members. The HBA offers an open and connected platform to discuss community challenges and taking action for its growth and betterment.

Being a member of the HBA can open so many doors of opportunity. The HBA staff are always so welcoming and helpful! Through monthly membership meetings, committee meetings and of course golf outings I have not only had the opportunity to build relationships with future customers but I have also made life long friendships! Thank you HBA!

The HBASE has introduced me to many business professionals in the construction industry. Developing these relationships with HBA members helps me learn about new products, design features and ultimately further my knowledge of the construction industry. The HBA also provides many great education opportunities that keep me up to date on all of the local code changes and OSHA safety practices.

Being a member of the HBA has been a great way for me to meet people from other areas of our industry we do not get to interact with normally.

The networking and educational opportunities provided by HBA are fantastic. I saw an immediate return on investment by simply being involved.

My HBA membership has allowed me to become and stay relevant to the building community within the Sioux Empire – giving me the opportunity to both contribute and extract value to/from the organization. It’s truly paved the way for interaction, networking and the chance to shape what decisions are made on the local level.

Testimonial

I personally have been a member of the HBA of the Sioux Empire for nearly 20 years and it would be hard to quantify all the amazing things the organization has done for me. From the amazing connections to people in our industry, to the ability to get involved in local issues that make a difference in our building industry and in the City of Sioux Falls as a whole; the HBA has been and continues to be a vital component of my personal business plan. The number of business contacts I have made over the years certainly allows me to be successful in my business, but on a more personal level I have made lifelong friendships that add value to my life on a daily basis. Joining the HBASE is not only an investment in your business, but in your community and truly and investment in yourself.
